====== Multiplayer ======

You can tell which kinds are my fave by all the green text :)

===== Competitive =====
==== Competitive with Co-op ====

^ //[[kane_and_lynch_2_dog_days|Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days]]// | on: 360, PS3, Windows |
| Interesting take  on co-op where you can kill each other to take all the winnings yourself. ||
| ||
^ //Omegalodon// | on: Windows |
| One team is a [[kaiju]] tasked with destroying things, the other team can control a bunch of different vehicles to try and stop them. Not the most interesting implementation of a neat idea though. ||
| ||
^ //[[rocket_league]]// | on: Switch, PS4, Windows, XBO |
|  ||
| ||
^ //[[umbrella_corps]]// | on: Windows |
| Zippy third-person shooter with a real interesting mix of well thought-out mechanisms. ||
| ||
^ //[[videoball]]// | on: PS4, Win |
| Sport. Play locally. ||
| ||

==== Local ====
^ //BANG BANG BANG!// | on: Linux, Mac, Win |
| Quick bursts of mind-games. Each stage is a grid, you pay by moving between points and being quickest on the draw.\\ I guess this was renamed to //Dangerous Duels//. ||
| [[itch>sophieh.itch.io/bangbangbang|BANG BANG BANG!]] ||
| ||
^ //BOMB DOLLS// | on: Mac, Win |
| C%%o%%-op driving, scavenging, adventure, makeout, game. ||
| [[itch>girlsoftware.itch.io/bombdolls|BOMB DOLLS]] ||
| ||
^ //[[videoball]]// | on: PS4, Win |
| Brilliant team sport. ||
| ||

==== Hot-Seat ====

^ //[[Capture the Flag]]// | on: Win |
| Turn-based, squad-based, capture the flag game. Has hot-seat multiplayer too. ||
| ||
^ //[[dungeon_land]]// | on GB |
|  ||
| ||

==== Asynchronous ====

Async, AKA play-by-email, etc. multiplayer games are ones where each player takes their turn in their own time. When they're done a notification of some kind is sent to the opponent, who can then take theirs. I like the pace of them, and the ability to have multiple games going at a time.

^ //[[Capture the Flag]]// | on: Win |
| Turn-based, squad-based, capture the flag game. Has hot-seat multiplayer too. ||
| ||
^ //[[civilization_v]]// | on: Linux, Mac, Win |
| Async multiplayer via [[Giant Multiplayer Robot]], otherwise at least the host has to be online or you to take your turn. ||
| ||
^ //[[civilization_vi]]// | on: Android, iOS, Linux, Mac, PS4, Switch, Windows, XB1 |
| An update added a 'cloud' multiplayer mode where people can finally play asynchronously. ||
| ||
^ //[[clairvoyance]]// | on: Mac, Win |
| //Clairvoyance// is a turn-based, asynchronous multiplayer game where you control a group of four robots trying to destroy your opponent's. The fun is in trying to predict what they'll do, and how things go wrong and right because of that :)\\ Never had any luck running it on Arch, but *buntus seem fine. Works perfect in [[wine]]. ||
| ||
^ //[[freeciv]]// | on like everything |
|  ||
| ||
^ //[[frozen_synapse]]// | on: Linux, Mac, Win |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Wargroove// | on: PS4, Switch, Win, XBO |
|  ||
| ||

==== Multiplayer Games I Would Like To Play With Others That I Never Get To ====

^ //[[bionic_commando]]// | on: 360, PS3, Windows |
| Amazing, aerial, grappling hook-based combat. ||
| ||
^ //Rampart// | |
| (note to self Famicom and GB (not colour) versions are ace too)\\ //[[http://kombat.kajaani.net/what.php|Kajani Kombat]]//\\ //[[http://www.linux-games.com/castle-combat/|Castle Combat]]// ||
| ||
^ //[[umbrella_corps]]// | on: Windows |
| Zippy third-person shooter with a real interesting mix of well thought-out mechanisms. ||
| ||

===== Co-operative =====

==== Low Action ====

Also good to play with people who aren't much into games.

^ //Ico// | on: PS2, PS3 |
| Haven't actually tried it. Yorda being weaponless might be a bummer. ||
| ||
^ //Minecraft// | on: everything |
|  ||
| ||

==== High Action ====

^ //[[edf_series|EDF]]// series | on: 360+, PS2+, Switch, Vita, Windows |
|  ||
| ||
^ //[[kane_and_lynch_2_dog_days|Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days]]// | on: 360, PS3, Windows |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Lost Planet 2// | on: 360, PS3, Windows |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Sanctum 2// | on: 360, PS3, Windows |
| [[ego_shooter|FPS]]/[[tower defence]] game that's pretty fun, even though I'm not big on either genre. ||
| ||

==== Frantic Problem Solving ====

^ //Cookie & Cream// | on: PS2 |
|  ||
| ||

==== Horror ====

^ //Resident Evil Revelations 2// | on: 3DS, Wii, Windows |
|  ||
| ||
^ //Obscure// series | on: PS2, Wii, Windows, XBox |
